Hello everyone! I would like to introduce my amazing sister and author, Janina Grey. She is a woman who has persevered throughout her entire life to reach her goal of becoming an author. Janina has met many obstacles that could have ultimately ruined her chances of becoming published and prevented her from accomplishing this long life goal that she pursued and never gave up on.

I encourage you to read her books because I can assure you in many ways you will be able to relate to her characters who make you feel that love is possible no matter what the circumstances are that could prevent it from happening.

I love you Bean and I am so proud of the woman and human being that you are. You are truly my inspiration and helped convince me that giving up was never an option.

Thank you, Jeana, for inviting me to Guest Blog at your beautiful site. Simple Sweet Living feels like a warm hug, a pat on the back, or an encouraging talk every time I visit. Your words are down to earth and real, and it’s an honor to be a part of the Simple Sweet Living experience.

Traditionally, my guest blog experience is dedicated to completely promoting my books. But, in light of where I am posting, I’d like to refocus a bit.

Strong Women. We are the ones who have been dealt rough times over and over again, get knocked down, but pick ourselves up and say it will be better tomorrow.

Amazing Women. These strong women are amazing in that they refuse to let anything or anyone get them down. They are focused on goals. Protective of loved ones. Honest and hardworking. Positive and uplifting. Giving and nurturing. They will do anything for you if they count you as their friend or a loved one.

Resilient Women. Will only take so much crap. Then they re-assess their life, who they surround themselves with, and whether or not these people are real or fake, holding them down or lifting them up, and then they do what they have to do to make sure they are in the best possible place they can be – with or without the false people in their life.

Jeana is my role model. My inspiration. My mentor. Both for my own personal life, but also for the characters I create in my romance novels.

In my soon-to-be-released romance novel published by Soul Mate Publishing and set to release on Amazon.com on April 27, LIFE IS FOR LIVING, Jayde MacMillan is a KICK ASS SINGLE MOM, who is as ferocious as a Mama Bear, driven and motivated to provide for her two twin toddlers, and not afraid to go it on her own.

She is a lot like Jeana. And Me. And So Many Other Moms (Single or Not) I’ve had the pleasure to meet and get to know.

We are a hardy breed. And we deserve to be recognized, loved, looked up to, and honored.

So here is to all the Moms out there who put their dreams aside to become a mom. Here is to all the Moms who started out with a Dad in their kids’ lives but realized they had to make a tough choice and go it alone for the sake and sanity of themselves and their kids. Here is to all the FEARLESS WOMEN who pick themselves up DAY after DAY and keep moving forward because that is what we do.

You all are amazing, strong, resilient, inspirational women and deserve to be recognized and honored.

In LIFE IS FOR LIVING, Jayde will do what she has to do to keep her kids safe. In LOVE IN THE FOREST, Brooke Meadows will not be wooed or glamoured in exchange for her independence and wellbeing. In TEN BUCKS AND A WISH, Deanna Drake will not put up with any BS from any man, and will not be coerced into compromising her life dreams.

They all are in some way reflective of my path, my sister’s path, and the path of so many women in real life.

There is a phrase I’ve used in my life through my day job: Strong Alone, Fearless Together. That’s us. That’s the moms and single moms and the resilient women who refuse to be kept down. Who believe in goodness and kindness and who will settle for nothing less.

Thank you, Jeana for being an inspiration to me and for my characters.

You are an AMAZING WOMAN.
